...work of the Harvard tackles was the most gratifying feature of the game. Donald's defense was faultless, and on the offense he was of material assistance to the runner on every play. J. Lawrence also showed himself to be unexpectedly strong, and let few plays pass...
...second half, Kendall returned the kick-off successfully, gaining twenty yards. On a trick formation, Campbell tackled Cuddy for a loss, but on the next down, a long pass gained thirty yards around Hallowell. Although Hapgood made two short gains, Brown was unable to get the necessary five yards, and on Sawin's punt, Campbell downed Pratt on Brown's fifteen-yard line. Richardson gained forty-five yards around Hallowell before he was downed by Ellis. After more punting, Harvard obtained possession of the ball, and, by vigorous plunges at centre advanced it until Ellis finally carried it across...

Some clever hurdling by the Harvard backfield carried the ball up to the five-yard line where Parker scored through La Ferriere. Sawin missed the goal.

On Webb's wild pass for a kick the ball rolled over the line and Upton was forced to make a safety. Twice again Harvard seemed about to score, when off-side play gave the ball to Bowdoin...
